Why listen to ‘birdsong’?
Studies have shown that listening to ‘birdsong’ is fantastic for reducing stress and our mental health, especially if you live in a city. Just 10 mins a day can make a significant difference! (Kings College London, Scientific Reports, 2022). Or just play it quietly for a chilled ambiance when working from home or relaxing.
I have a number of beautiful CDs of ‘birdsong’ in various spectacular locations. Sit back and listen to the sample on this page. Why not buy a CD today, or commission a recording from a specific location that is important to you.
Our approach to wildlife recording.
I have been recording the sounds of wildlife for many years. I’m passionate about capturing ‘birdsong’ due to its beauty, its extraordinary powers of relaxation and the challenge of recording every detail accurately. Over the years I have developed a process of recording digitally in “surround sound” with advanced EQ techniques to remove the almost unavoidable ‘noise pollution’ that exists nearly everywhere. I use small digital recorders together with powerful Cubase software which is like having a full recording studio in the field. For more focused recording I use directional mics, portable sound cards and even a parabolic dish. The results are amazing!
